WHAT'S FARMING.-lt is something
more than staying on farm. Ii is
something more than skimmng the soil.
It's more than selling hay or potatoes,
and bulky crops unaniInalized. Farming
is u business. a profession, practical
and scientific operation. The process OF
nature must be understood, and worked
in harmony with the chemistry of the
earth and air. The process Of nature
must be understood, il not in their tech
nical terms AMI language, in that sensl-
bic understanding. that common sense
wav, that their own advantage and ca
liabilities may be turned to the best &C
count. The lawyer works by law and
precedent, the physician works by symp-
toms and indications. the merchant by
rules and observations, the mechanic by
measures and capacities. The farmer
must work by abby rules, laws, OBJ
servation and experiment. He must be
a skilled workman in the productive,
operative and commercial circles in
which his business lies and his sphere
of circulation extends.-McKinney Ter
as Journal.

FARM AND HoUsEHoLD.

A USE For CoRN-C oBs.-Deep gullies
can be kept out Of ''washy" land Only
by closing the little WATERWAYS after
each heavy rain. Delay makes the work
greater, not only because the larger
gully will require more material, but
smaller gullies will form toward II
which must, be closed, and which make
il more difficult 20 retain distractions in
the larger gully. For closing small
waterways, sern cobs from the feeding
floors serve an excellent purpose. These
are usually water-soake5l, or soon be'
come so, and then the water will not
move them. They DO not interfere with
blowing or narrowing. The pillow or
harrow will pass through them and re-
move verv few from their places, to
which they can be returned easily. III
brush is used it must be staked down,
and either pillow or harrow will pull the
stakes and brush from their places. III
more solid obstructions are opposed to
the water, they suffer all the grester
from the passage OF implements. Many
farmers neglect to fill small wssh-onts
after the fall rains, and, Of course, fail
10 yet them filled before the spring
freshcts begin, and before the washing
can be stopped large gullies are formed.
Ii cobs are placed in the wash-outs late
in the fall, they will become so compact
ed and firmly fixed until spring. that
even the heavy spring rains will not
remove them, while the winter thaws
will bring enough soil TO the waterway
10 fill the crevices between them. and
thus sid in filling the gully.

The INwARDNEsS OF EGGS.-For burns
and scads nothing is more soothing than
the white OF an egg, which may De
poured over the wound. IL is softer as
vsrnish for burn than collodian, aud
being always at hand can be applied. 1t
is also more cooling than sweet oil and
cotton, which was formerly supposed TO
be the surest application to allay smart
inS pain. It is the contact with the air
which gives the extreme discomfort e1
perienoed from the ordinary accident OF
this kind, and anything that excludes
the air and prevents Inflammation is the
thing TO be at once applied. The egg
il considered one OF the best OF remedies
for dysentery. Beaten up slightly, with
or without sugar, and swallowed up at
axulp, it tends by its smolient qualities
TO lessen the Inflammation Of the stomach
and intestines, and forming TRANSFER II
coating on these organs, to enable nature
TO resume healthful sway over diseased
body. Two, or AZ most three, eggs per
dav would be all that is required in or
binary cases and sincee egg is not merely
medicine, but food as well, the lighter
the diet otherwise and tho Quieter the
patient is kept the more certain and rap
Id the recovery.

Song Of the Glass
j. III. NJ.

have stood where men in their fury cried,
And laughed at their fiendish glee-
have poured the curse of my sinful tide
| In an ocean, broad and free;
| I have swept the pearl of the widows tear,
And whitened the cheek of shame,
have hardened the trembling heart of fear
With the glow of my devilish flame.
have c!inked while the crimson blood like rain
Poured out from the helpless form,
I have Knocked when the victim has sought il
To fly from the gathering Storm;
L have poured the sin in the murderer's heart,
Who has stricken the fatal blow,
And rejoiced in the wiles of my subtle art
While laying my victims low.
have painted the house where demons dwell
And laughed at their frightful song,
have planted the home by yawning hell
That is fed by wave of wrong;
I have seized the form of the beauteous child
And rended its tender limb,
have drenched the form of my victim, wild,
Till his eyes in death grew dim.
have poisoned the lips of innocent youth,
And smitten the heart of age,
1 have turned the light of the gospel truth
To flame of terrible rage;
have stood by the path of pleasure and hope
Where innocent feet have trod,
Add laughed at the victims who blindly grope
On their journey away from God.
1 have scorned the cry of the earnest pray'r,
AS it reached to the Fathers throne,
I have paused in the Church, till its sacred air
Was shocked by my mocking tone;
On the hurrying tide of lies great sea
am wandering up and down
And the glory of thousands yet to be
Will vanish beneath my frown.
Unwarned, my Quivering darts are hurpd
To the depths of the perishing soul,
And laugh at the cries of the feeble world
AS the sad years onward roll;
For man will come TO my poisoned well
And drink of my fatal l.wave-
And the voice of sorrow will sadly tell
Their story above the grave.

Bronchitis, Batarrh, Asthma and all

sinking, curses upon the community.
which tell the world the sad story of
mans Indifference; ranking cancers, that
are eating the life out of our social system
and attempting to teach the world that
we constitute community of brutes; de-
basing shadows, that horrify the soul, and
cloud the life with sin; foul eruptions
upon the face of the body polite, that
stamp the person who has touched the
things with foul sores and unutterable
nastiness; dangerous lepers, spreading
death and destruction in a world of light
and joy.
A petitioner rather a number of pc
titions-signed by good majority of the
voters of the town, was presented to the
Council, and the result awaited prayer
fully. To say that feeling of surprise
and horror filled the hearts of the people
at the action of part of Council, is but to
state the fact. The idea that Council
could stand, in the shadow of a number
of churches, and in the presence of hun
dreds of bright, happy school children, and
vote to keep these internal dens in town,
could not for a moment be entertained,
until after the action was taken. But
that is matter that will be settled here
after.
The result of the vote upon the Prohib
itory Ordinance was tie-three to three,
Murfn, Ewing and Ridenour voting to
abolish the doggeries, Armstrong, Pugh
and McKitterick voting the other way.
We cannot think that this vote will stand
thus at another reading of the ordinance.
We would much rather record a unani-
nous vote in favor of the ordinance
There is not one reason, or shadow of
reason, why one of these internal dens
should be kept in town-there are thou
sand reasons why they should all be sup
pressed. This is a serious condition Of
things. The temperance people-com-
prising vast majority of the people, vo-
tiers as well as women-are in terrible
earnest. 1t is a sentiment that cannot
with safety be laughed at or ignored.
The power lies with the people, and they
will use it. Thereiwill be no backward
steps in this matter. The movement will
be kept up with calm determination that
will produce as near as possible the de-
sired results. The'influence thatEattempts
to stay the progress of this great wave of
sobriety, Christianity and enlightenment,
must get out of the way or be crushed.
The people of Jackson will very abruptly
settle the question as to whether the chief
end of human destiny is to worship a
beer-keg.

Is Life
Worth Liyinq :?

That depends upon the
Liver, for if the Liver is
inactive the whole sys-
tenn is out of order-the
breath is bad, digestion
poor, head dull or aching,
energy and hopefulness
gone, the spirits are de-
pressed, a heavy weight
exists after eating, with
general dependency and
the blues. The Liver is
the housekeeper of the
health; !. and a harmless,
simple remedy that acts
like Nature, does not
constipate afterwards or
require constant taking,
does not interfere with
business or pleasure dur
ing its use, makes Sim
mons Liver Regulator a
medical perfection.
